Evaluate this complex number square root:
√-2 + 6i
Define the complex square root:
√a + bi:
root1 = x + yi
root2 = -x - yi
Calculate r:
r = √a2 + b2
r = √-22 + 62
r = √4 + 36
r = √40
r = 6.3245553203368
Calculate y:
y = √½(r-a)
y = √½(6.3245553203368 - -2)
y = √½(8.3245553203368)
y = √4.1622776601684
y = 2.0401660864176
Calculate x:
| x = | b |
| 2y |
| x = | 6 |
| 2(2.0401660864176) |
| x = | 6 |
| 4.0803321728351 |
x = 1.4704685172313
Final Answer
Root 1 = 1.4704685172313 + 2.0401660864176i
Root 2 = -1.4704685172313 - 2.0401660864176i
Root 2 = -1.4704685172313 - 2.0401660864176i

What is the Answer?
Root 1 = 1.4704685172313 + 2.0401660864176i
Root 2 = -1.4704685172313 - 2.0401660864176i
Root 2 = -1.4704685172313 - 2.0401660864176i

What 6 formulas are used for the Complex Number Operations Calculator?
a + bi + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + d)i
a + bi - (c + di) = (a - c) + (b - d)i
(a * c) + (b * c) + (a * d) + (b * d)
The square root of a complex number a + bi, is denoted as root1 = x + yi and root2 = -x - yi
|a + bi| = sqrt(a2 + b2)
a + bi has a conjugate of a - bi and a - bi has a conjugate of a + bi.
a + bi - (c + di) = (a - c) + (b - d)i
(a * c) + (b * c) + (a * d) + (b * d)
The square root of a complex number a + bi, is denoted as root1 = x + yi and root2 = -x - yi
|a + bi| = sqrt(a2 + b2)
a + bi has a conjugate of a - bi and a - bi has a conjugate of a + bi.
